😮In all seriousness, it wasn't that big and it was engaging it's thrusters to help it land. In Colossus' defense, he was recovering from wounds while he did that.

But at the end of the day you're still guessing. And that pillar isn't worth bringing up.

He "lifted" it only for a few seconds.
That said, Thing still has the best on panel lifting feats, followed by Doc Samson.
Originally posted by zopzopWell it's much larger than the pillar you mentioned. 😆Ship is huge eh?
Originally posted by zopzopI guess you missed the part where Reed stated that they were too low and to brace for a crash landing. Colossus saved their buts. It's like driving a 18 wheeler and having to slam on the brakes at the last minuted to avoid hitting a car. The ship was falling and had momentum and Colossus stopped it....while he was injured....and while he was still a kid. All Ben did was lift a corner of the oil rig, that's like lifting a corner of a pool table vs lifting the whole thing. 😆 And Doc's feat? We don't even know how big the bulding was.Then I guess you must have missed the FOUR HUGE ENGINES stabilizing the ship as it crashed down on Colossus. Even if you missed those engines, the very first panel stated that Reed had engaged the stabilizers and retros in an attempt to slow/stop their descent.

Colossus held it for a few seconds and that's it. But at least it's something.
Thing lifted that huge ass glass pyramid that weighed about 200 tons (scan provided). Ben braced a HUGE ass oil rig (scan provided). Ben held together an entire SUSPENSION BRIDGE for a few seconds/minutes(scan provided). Ben lifted a 4 story brownstone.
Samson LIFTED a large THREE STORY university BUILDING from it's foundations.
Thing wins. Followed by Samson. Colossus is a distant third.

You're helping prove my point. You are GUESSING the weight of these objects when there is proof in comics that state or show how much a character is lifting. Doc and Ben were lifting those objects under optimal conditions while Colossus was injured and had to catch a rather large falling object.
This should be easy since he's so strong right? I'll wait.
ON PANEL, Thing is the clear winner. Followed by Doc Samson.
Originally posted by zopzopYou already posted a scan of an injured teenage Colossus catching a falling object. And imo it's more impressive than lifting a portion of an oil rig and lifting a small building.
So provide other scans of him lifting anything as impressive as THing or Doc Samson ON PANEL.This should be easy since he's so strong right? I'll wait.

Colossus BRACED a falling ship that had engaged it's retro thrusters for a FEW SECONDS.
Thing LIFTED a 200 ton glass pyramid among the other things I listed and provided scans for.
Samson LIFTED a LARGE 3 story university building from it's foundations and shook crooks out of it.
To drive the point across.
So we have Colossus LIFTING a stone pillar and BRACING (for a few seconds) a ship that had engaged it's retro thrusters.
What else do we have?
Originally posted by zopzopColossus performed a more impressived feat but he wasn't under optimal conditions like Doc and Ben were. Don't overlook that fact son. And that pillar isn't even worth mentioning as it weighed nothing for a guy in his strength class.
In other words, you got nothing.Colossus BRACED a falling ship that had engaged it's retro thrusters for a FEW SECONDS.
Thing LIFTED a 200 ton glass pyramid among the other things I listed and provided scans for.

Didn't Colossus carry and airplane from the ocean floor to the shore once? And again....those aren't optimal conditions.

If you can't see the difference, I don't know how else to explain it to you.
Thing has more lifting feats than anyone else in this panel. He wins by default.

And BTW looking at the Samson pic he didn't even pick up the whole building he just picked up a corner of it. You can tell because he's not under it, he's on the outside of it.
Originally posted by zopzopI can't see the difference? There is a big difference between benching 600lbs. and catching 600lbs with broken ribs. Can you see the difference?
Colossus BRACED it for a few seconds. Yeah he was injured but the ship had engaged it's retro thrusters too. Samson RIPPED a 3 story university building from it's foundations and SHOOK people out of it.If you can't see the difference, I don't know how else to explain it to you.

WOW! Save some of whatever you're on for me. He obviously lifted the whole damn thing because he SHOOK the crooks out of it! Here he is putting it down.

F A I L.
Originally posted by zopzopAgain....Reed said they were too low and to brace for a crash. Colossus caught the ship that was falling from the sky. Granted the stabilizers were activated but Colossus stopped it from crashing because as Reed said THEY WERE TOO LOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Big difference in that when you "catch" the 600lbs you would have had help from engines attached to the weight pushing in the OPPOSITE direction of the falling 600lbs!F A I L.
Originally posted by juggernaut74Yes, please do this.
Zop I have an experiment for you, jump in your car and get up to about 65 or so and drive straight into a concrete wall and slam on the brakes at the last minute and come back and tell us how that works out for ya.
For experimental purposes of course.
